Okay...so now I'm a little bit nervous!

Well, tomorrow is the day!  10am I'll be having a life changing surgery and I'm excited and a bit nervous.  This is such a HUGE step!  My life, my kid's lives, my husband's life...all my family and friends...our lives are changing. 

I just love the power of prayer and I feel it all around me.  I'm going at this HEAD ON and I know I'll be fine and I'm going to power through it all and GET THIS WEIGHT OFF! 

On a side note, I haven't been able to take my anti-inflammatory and BOY am I feelin' that today!  Woo.  I still need to get my bag packed and ready and I'm just about to do that.  Can't pack up my bi-pap until the morning but I don't want to forget anything else!

So, this is my last post before the surgery and I appreciate ALL the support I have from all my friends and family. 

Tomorrow is a new day...tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life and if God should feel it's time for me to be with him, I'm ready for that too!

Bi-Pap

Well, last night was my first night with my Bi-Pap.  I can tell you that it was AMAZING!! :D  I cannot wait to get more nights with it under my belt!  I woke up today feeling refreshed and without a headache. OH...did I mention, according to the test that I stopped breathing 164 times in an hour and my oxygen level fell to 76.  Your body apparently is begging for oxygen at 87.  No wonder I feel like crap all the time.

They also called today to confirm my surgery!  May 11, 2011.  I have to be there at 8am.  Surgery is scheduled @ 10:30am.  I'm not really nervous yet though I'm sure I will be day of.

This is so awesome!  I cannot wait to truly begin this part of my journey and watch the pounds melt away.
